Constipation
I recently travelled to a new city and since then have issues passing stools as they are quite hard. I took suppository twice and enema once. I took duphalac syrup for around 7 days but that didn't help much so switched to hexbio and movicol . I had C-section 3 months ago. I can feel a small soft growth at the Anus I am worried whether this is piles . I can feel sharp pain when passing stool even though they are soft after medication. My doctor gave me emla 5% to numb pain . Please help with any tropical creams to shrink the haemorrhage

Intimacy Pain and Anal Fissures
I’ve been experiencing pain during intimacy, which I believe is caused by an anal fissure. The pain is sharp and intense, especially during or after any form of penetration, and it can last for a while afterward. Sometimes, I also feel discomfort even when not engaging in intimacy, especially when sitting for long periods or after bowel movements. I’m concerned because this pain is affecting my ability to have normal intimate relations. Could this be linked to the fissure, and what treatment options might help?"
